Loves it. He tried to buy it during the pullback. Their business was way down during the lockdown earlier this year, but the lottery ticket business really picked up in following months during reopenings. Sales have come back quite nicely. People are buying more lottery tickets. Their online lottery in Michigan has taken off, like most things online. It's reasonably priced. Enjoy a strong moat--only 3 players in this market and this won't change.

The stock has gone up from $6 when he recommended it to about $22, but that has been through organic growth and acquisition. The revenues have kept up with the stock price, so today it is trading at almost the same multiple as it did a while ago. He anticipates additional acquisitions and thinks it is a well-run business.
